By the way when I mentioned watching footage of the Vietnam conflict when my Dad was over there, I was not trying to say that pictures of wars be censored out of respect for families. There should be a little decency about it (oxymoron, I know), and not show close ups of the faces of the dead, but other than that, the films should be shown. The American public got at least some inkling of the savagery of the Vietnam conflict, and I, personally, got to have a hell of a lot of respect for the heroism of my father going thru the nightmares that were revealed on the evening news.
